If you loved Fat City, try Der Mann, der König sein wollte
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by John Huston, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Fat City, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Der Mann, der König sein wollte is
Treasure of the Sierra Madre if the treasure was a nation. Two ex-soldiers decide to set themselves up as kings in Kafiristan. John Huston at his most puckish, offering Connery and Caine prime roles.
